Master Mason Blue Lodge Collar – Dark Blue Velvet Gold Bullion Embroidered

Master Mason Blue Lodge Collar presents one of Freemasonry’s most recognized emblems with the weight and finish that the third degree deserves. Dark blue velvet forms the collar body, deep in tone and consistent across every inch of the 4-inch width, providing a foundation that holds both color and structure through years of Lodge ceremony. Against that velvet ground, a square and compasses emblem is worked in golden bullion threads, raised above the surface with the dimensional quality that only genuine hand embroidery in bullion wire can produce.

Gold braid, half an inch wide, runs the full perimeter of the collar as a border. Metallic and consistent, it traces the V-shaped collar outline from shoulder point to shoulder point without interruption, defining the edges with a line that catches Lodge room light cleanly. Where lesser collars finish their borders with flat ribbon or machine-applied trim, this collar closes each edge in metallic braid that holds its position and sheen across the full service life of the piece.

Consider the evening a brother receives the third degree and takes his place among Master Masons. From that night forward, the square and compasses he wears identifies him within every Lodge room he enters. This collar places that emblem at the chest with a precision and depth of craft that marks the occasion as it deserves to be marked, not with a printed symbol or flat stitching, but with hand embroidered golden bullion that rises from the velvet and commands quiet attention.

The collar is constructed as a single jointless piece, cut and finished without seams breaking the velvet body at any point along the neckline or fall. A seamed collar shifts and opens at the join under the pressure of regular wear. This one holds its drape and alignment through the full length of any degree ceremony or stated Lodge meeting because there is no weak point in the construction for wear to exploit.

Blue fine polyester fabric lines the back of the collar completely, smooth against formal dress and protective of the velvet face during storage and wear. A metal jewel hook is fixed at the rear, positioned to accept the Master Mason’s jewel cleanly without requiring additional attachment hardware. The hook sits flush enough that it does not disrupt the fall of the collar from the front.

At 4 inches wide, the collar fills the shoulder and chest presentation with appropriate weight and authority. Narrow enough to sit without bulk, wide enough to carry the bullion emblem and gold braid border in proper proportion.

The metal jewel hook holds the Lodge jewel securely in position through the full ceremony, and the blue polyester lining keeps the velvet face clean and protected wear after wear.

FAQ

Q: What makes this collar different from a standard machine-finished Master Mason collar?

A: This collar is hand embroidered with genuine golden bullion threads, which raises the square and compasses above the velvet surface in three dimensions. It is also cut as a single jointless piece, which prevents the seam separation that affects standard collars over time.

Q: How wide is the collar and will it sit properly on a formal jacket?

A: The collar is 4 inches wide with a half-inch metallic gold braid border running the full perimeter. This width sits cleanly on the shoulders over formal dress without pulling or bunching.

Q: Does this collar come with a jewel, or is the jewel hook for attaching a separate jewel?

A: The metal jewel hook on the reverse is designed to accept a separately purchased Lodge jewel. The collar itself does not include a jewel.

Q: How should this collar be stored to protect the velvet and bullion embroidery?

A: Store flat in a collar case or laid smooth in a regalia bag. Avoid folding across the embroidered emblem, as pressure on bullion wire over time can compress the raised stitching.
